Spyderco Forums

So I have been playing with my M390 Mili. Its been stored in my SpyderPac since its arrival. My jimping is also in the opposite direction. I understand the comments above and agree with the sentiment that the ergo's are more important than the jimping BUT...if a knife maker is going to take the ...

Anywhere other than knifeworks yet?

I love the Balance. I have been carrying it for a couple of months now and if fits perfectly into a watch pocket and cant even be noticed.

The cutting ability of this little knife in my opinion is related to its ergonomic design. Some people may find the Balance to look a bit odd but in my ...

Here are my purchases for 2010 and yes,that it is alot of knives :eek: .

When I saw the title of this post I was going to post all the knives I bought. When I saw tonydahose's list I felt like a fairy lol.

Anyway here is what I purchased this year.

Spyderco
- Endura 4 FFG grey
- Delica 4 FFG ...

I hope the first gents to see the preorder lists will let us all know in this thread :)

Generally, it is referred to as stainless D2. I've heard nothing but good things about this steel and am looking forward to this sprint very much

The compression lock is great. The Para 2 that i recently received was my first knife with this lock type. before receiving it I was unsure as to how the compression lock worked and assumed it functioned much like a liner lock. however I can say that it functions quite a bit different and is a vast ...

Just got my S90V Para 2 today.

This knife is really amazing. It takes everything I love about my all time favorite, the Military, and just scales it down to a smaller size. The ergos on this knife are spot on for my size of hand and I love the jimping on the blade and handle.

also, S90V = Jedi ...

Ill take any dodo :) CPM-M4 dodo in carbon fiber would be soooooo sweet.

you'll love that knife. the only thing i dislike about the Chinese made spiders is the crappy g10. build quality is superb though!

can't wait for mine, should get it late this week.

Hey thanks a lot, I would love to see that article

I think the military can work great as an EDC knife. The only time carrying a big knife is an issue is when it is uncomfortable to carry in everyday situations. In the case of the millie, it is more comfortable for me than most smaller knives. The light weight frame, thin handle and uniform shape ...

Nice job Soup! that looks awesome. have you been EDCing it yet? how do you find it for EDC

ya an M390 mule would be nice so I can really get a feel for this steel. Sounds like it should have great corrosion resistance based on the description from BOHLER and the 20% Cr that it has. If edge retention is as good as it's supposed to be than this could be a top steel choice for many people ...

I believe our next Mule Team is M390.

It's a nice steel and I'm sure we'll be using it for some stuff. We met with Bohler Uddeholm a litle while ago and they have some nice product. I'm a bit of a steel whore and we offer all the good steels we can find.

They also have N690Co that they'll be ...

Balance and Millie came today! As has been said many a time.... Wow, the Balance is TINY. But, it's very cool. The digi-cam Millie is a beast. The digi-cam isn't exactly what I expected. The digi-cam pattern is sort of underneath a translucent G-10 material. It's inside the G-10 rather than on the ...

From what I have read I dont think spyderco will be using M390 but will be using carpenter's version which I believe is called CTS204P. The steel certainly seems promising based on the chemical make-up but I have a BM 755 with this steel and have had a hard time getting the sharpness I would like ...

Thanks for the input everyone! Great pic Jazz :)
